This is about my journey to becoming an OT from a Pre-OT student, from the standpoint of an adult student, mother of 5, and a wife. Let's buckle up because the fun is about to begin on this career path.

Applied to the OT program today!

Yay, I submitted my application to the Occupational Therapy program today! Just
to assure accuracy I checked it twice OK maybe three times. Check the transcripts,
checked the recommendation letters, check the letter showing my observation
hours, and then made sure to enclose the $30 money order for the application. I
check and tripled checked, when I went in to submit my application to Ms.
Spaulding, I think she may have needed to brace herself because I was running
towards her like a football player going in for the tackle with all of my
excitement. I gave her two hugs and made sure that all my I’s were dotted and
my t's were crossed. Should I say it.......? I can breathe after getting all
the information turned in. I also requested my transcripts to be mailed to the
school so that they're official. I am so thankful that I am here and now I need
to learn how to balance school and life again. This is the time that i need to
take it easy and really focus on the of balance school, family, and me time, everything
takes time, I am ready for the ride. Now that the application is in, I don't
think I will hear anything back until Feb 8.

In the meantime, please send good energy my way! Hope the best is going well
for all of you out there.
